Following the 1:12 Type82E Kommandeurwagen, FMS released the civilian version - 1:12 The People's Car. The Boxer air-cooled engine is the core of the car, the engine crankshaft flywheel is connected by a belt to drive the generator and the cooling fan as well. The semi-circular fan fairing is a major feature, in which the airflow is distributed to the cylinders on both sides. All is faithfully restored on the model, meaning you can observe the blades rotating through the fan intake when the motor is running. RocHobby designed a 2-speed shift to simulate the speed of the 1st and 3rd gears of the real car. The power crosses over from the top of the rear axle differential and then returns to the rear axle. The model shares the same structure as the real engine, with the benefit of compactness, making it easy to switch between 4WD and RWD modes. This shift function is perfectly reproduced on the model to provide more driving pleasure when driving off-road.

That has an amazing amount of detail to be as small as it is. Nice model!

[@alfabeta22]

How nice to be able to get distracted like this, leaving out all the problems of life.

[@danielemulazzi1615]

[@EssentialRC]

[@DadsRCHangar]

Iconic car that’s always looks great, even as RC. 😎

[@EssentialRC]

Couldn't agree more!

[@jibeco]

What a job. Iconic car. 2 thumbs up. Thank you.

[@EssentialRC]

Much appreciated!

[@gryfandjane]

Well, I’m into RC, and I’ve collected model VWs for years. Highly tempting…

[@MusicStudent1]

Man…it’s beautiful! More model than RC car. I’d like it to go faster but there are other kits out there for that.

[@MusicRCBicyclesCoffee]

This is awesome!!! I will get one soon. :)

[@Mark-mu4pj]

[@EssentialRC]

Now , there is 1/12 Volkswagen Beetle and Kubelwagen , only Schwimmwagen that need to be made in 1/12

[@RTatBstoke]

1:12 scale same scale as the wife's doll's houses. Don't suppose she will notice one turning up in the garage, or a figure going walkabout, sorry drive about! 🚘😊

[@LCMNUNES1962]

MUITO ORIGINAL REALISTICO 👍👍

[@miguelreynaga9977]

Hola buen día desde México! No puedo vincular el transmisor (control) con el receptor (auto), me puedes orientar de cómo debe estar configurado?

[@jonoedwards4195]

Nice 👌

[@EssentialRC]

Thanks 😊

Nice cn u put a 6 inch fig ?

[@TestECull]

My biggest issue with this car is the dinky dinky dinky little 130 motor powering it. Will be almost laughably easy to let the magic smoke out. I'd at least prefer to see a 280, but preferrably a 380. Ah well, I bet a mini-z brushless motor and small little standalone ESC will fix that

[@ellycars1862]

Is the body Metal or Plastic?

[@miketango244]

4x4 Volkswagen Beetle ?

[@francoisst-aubin432]

Hi, I just got mine last week. How do you install the front bumper ?? And what looks like a horn or whatever…the instructions don’t talk about these

[@EssentialRC]

You need to unscrew the front under plate and remove it to install the bumper. Horn?

[@marcmercedes2707]

It stand unrealistic on his wheels

[@EssentialRC]

There's always one 🙄
